The blog entry demonstrates, how Setups in Sbuilder can be used to manage state space explosion, and associates setups with Use Case Slices to make the idea of managing state space size more comprehensible for developers. Ideally, a Use Case Slice, identified in development, is configured as an Sbuidler Setup and added into a repository for Regression Verification. The objective is to increase confidence in application correctness, and to make QA more efficient with faster feed back because a formal model

can be executed without the need to have it installed on real production environment, and

the model checker can effectively check all possible executions in the formal model.
